Original Note:
The Olympics & IOC have clarified that the boxer in question is female. The IBA, which is banned from the Olympics due to lack of transparency, never stated the boxer had XY chromosomes. In fact, they never disclosed the reasoning for the disqualification from IBA matches. https://olympics.com/ioc/news/joint-paris-2024-boxing-unit-ioc-statement https://www.iba.sport/news/statement-made-by-the-international-boxing-association-regarding-athletes-disqualifications-in-world-boxing-championships-2023/
